Birthday Of The King/hark! The Herold Angels Sing lyrics

In the little village of BethlehemThere lay a child one dayAnd the sky was bright with a Holy lightO'er the place where Jesus lay.ChorusHalleluia, oh how the angels sang.Halleluia, how it rang.And the sky was bright with God's holy light.It was the birthday of the king.It was a humble birthplace but oh how muchGod gave to us that day.From the manger bed what a path was ledWhat a perfect, holy way.ChorusHark! The herald angels sing.Glory to the newborn King.Peace on earth and mercy mild.God and sinners reconciled.Joyful all ye nations rise.Join the triumph of the skiesWith angelic voice proclaimChrist is born on Bethlehem.Hark! The herald angels singGlory to the newborn King.Chorus
